IMUS DROPPED BY MSNBC

Just two days after suspending Don Imus for two weeks for inappropriate remarks, NBC announced today that MSNBC will no longer simulcast the "Imus in the Morning" radio program. Earlier Wednesday American Express, which spent $1.2 million advertising on the show, pulled their ads. General Motors had already stopped advertising on the show for unrelated reasons, but did indicate that they would no longer consider advertising on an Imus program. At this point, Imus is still employed by WFAN, a CBS radio station in New York, where his program brings in 25% of all advertising dollars for the station.
